Engineering Plastic "Nylon 6,6"

Product Name

Engineering Plastic "Nylon 6,6"

Nylon (polyamide) is used in various applications as a typical industrial engineering plastic. It has excellent mechanical properties such as abrasion resistance, wear resistance, chemical resistance, oil resistance, and gas barrier properties, and has a high melting point, so it is used safely in heat-resistant automotive parts.

◆Features◆

・Excellent chemical resistance (alkalis, organic solvents, fuels, etc.).
・By absorbing water, flexibility and impact resistance increase.

 

◆Application◆

・Automobiles and vehicle parts
・Electronics and electric parts
・Sliding parts
・Industrial equipment parts
